Na Koh Taa prideš zaradi turkiznega morja, belih plaž in lahkega vzdušja. Najbolj znana je plaža Sairee z dolgim peskom in sončnimi zahodi, ki jih gledaš iz ležalnika ali z brisače na plaži. Lep je tudi razgled z razgledne točke John-Suwan, kjer vidiš oba zaliva in zelen gozd.
Koh Tao je raj za snorklanje in potapljanje, saj so okoli otoka koralni grebeni in pisane ribe. Lahko se pridružiš šoli potapljanja ali vzameš preprost izlet z ladjico okrog otoka. Skrita lepota se skriva v manjših zalivih, kot so mirne plaže, do katerih prideš po kratki poti skozi palme.
Poskusi tajsko hrano v malih uličnih lokalih, kjer dobiš pad thai, sveže ribe z žara in mangov lepljivi riž. Zvečer se sprehodi ob obali, poslušaš glasbo in opazuješ ognjene predstave.
